Linda took a deep breath before answering. “Okay, I understand.”
And so, they ended the phone call. Rose immediately arranged for some people to go to the hospital.
Linda, on the other hand, sat in her ward. She felt extremely uneasy.
Soon, twenty minutes had passed.
Linda gripped her phone tightly. Eventually, she called Monica.
Monica had played an important role in helping her get into the Wickam family. Monica was also waiting
for tonight.
When Monica heard her phone ring, she thought she had succeeded. She smiled and answered the call
with a smile. “Linda, why are you calling me at this time? Have you not gone to bed yet?”
Linda gently gasped through her mouth like her nose was blocked. She sounded like she had cried.

Monica frowned, and quickly asked, “Linda, what’s the matter?”
Linda gasped again, then spoke softly. She sounded as if she was trying hard to refrain from crying.
“Aunty, I’m… going home first.”
Her voice shook as she was about to finish her sentence. She sounded like she was unable to hold back
her emotions.
Monica’s facial expression changed immediately. “What is wrong, Linda? Where are you going? What
about Gareth?”
Linda sighed. “Aunty, perhaps we are not meant for each other. I… I shall go back first. I will not
intervene in Gareth’s life anymore in the future. I will not carry any hopes for him either.”
“Linda, calm down. What on earth happened? Tell me.”
Linda sniffed. Then she spoke in a trembling voice, “There’s no need for that, aunty. You don’t have to do

anything for me. I shouldn’t have expected too much. I should have remained aloof, and not spoiled their
relationship. I shall leave, aunty. I will visit you in the future when I have the chance.”
Linda hung up as soon as she finished speaking.
She removed the singlet she was wearing and changed into a more presentable outfit. She wiped her
tears and tried hard to calm herself down.
She was not quite able to control her emotions earlier on. She had spent a lot of time and thought
planning this so that she could be with Gareth. But… He suddenly stopped caring for her and even
seemed to detest her.
How could she not be upset?
After Linda finished changing, she grabbed her bag and went out.
It was a chilly night. The icy breeze kissed her face. She could not help but shiver. But the chill she felt
physically was no competition to the piercing coldness in her heart.
Huge drops of tears streamed down Linda’s face uncontrollably. Her phone in her bag vibrated. She took

it out and saw that it was Monica calling. She did not answer it.
About five minutes later, when she was walking past an alley, a few men approached her. “Hey sweetie,
where are you heading to? Feeling lonely?”
Linda stopped instantly. Her facial expression changed. “Who… Who are you…”
In less than a minute, Linda was surrounded by these men.
She quickly backed away. “What… What are you guys doing? Do you know who I am?”
“Of course, you are a woman! Hahaha! We just want to enjoy the night view with a woman.”
Linda was so frightened that she took several more steps back. She did not expect to fall into one of the
men’s arms. “Oh! She has taken favor of me! Come on baby, I will let you feel some love tonight.”
“Ah! Let go of me!”
Linda panicked for real. How dare these men!
Didn’t her mother tell them what they should or should not do? How dare they touch her!
They are not on the same level as her!
“Don’t be scared. But I like it when you play hard to get.” The men suddenly rushed over towards her.
